Robotics/Dave Meppelink

Welcome to Dave Meppelink's robotics web page!

Here is some of the work I have done for Fred Martin's 91.548 Robotics I course:

• Lab 2: Introduction to the Handy Cricket

• Lab 5: A 5x7 LED Display Driver that uses the LogoChip.
  Also, be sure to check out the improved performance of the Updated 5x7 LED Display Driver.

• Lab 6: 5x7 LED Display Driver Schematic and PCB Design

• First Project Plan for Chesster Junior, the chess playing robot I will show at the UML Botfest.

• The Project Report for Chesster Junior describes the whole project in detail.

• On May 8, 2003, we had an open house to demonstrate our final projects to whoever was interested. Fred took three movies of Chesster: one, two, three.

• A Tangible Interface to Computerized Chess describes Chesster Senior and is my final paper for the course.

• USB Technical Overview is the handout for my presentation about the Universal Serial Bus.

• I figured out the connector pinout for the Autec Power Systems DT25-1004 power supply.
